As it Seems

All that is all that are
Sing me songs through darkness scar
Of ever lasting false true love
Of everything that never was
Broken promises to keep
Dreams that dreamt in awaken sleep
Hold your tongue and speak your mind
Forever to live will be to die
Speak the wind in secret silence
Green grass grows not around the fence
Two dead trees that long to touch
Grow closer still for both love much
The freezing sun beats down tonight
Love's a war for all to fight
Many treasures will make a man poor
A thief will always need much more
The lack of moon glows too bright
Secrets of night are hard to hide
Only one girl stands up and out
The crowd will never hear her shout
The quietness is deafening
Nothing's ever as it seems

The Tale Of A Werewolf

Light turns to shadows
As day turns to night
My presence is unknown
I must stay out of sight

I grow steadily weary
The time is drawing near
Slowly I am filled with dread
I start to shake with fear

I stumble to a room
Lock myself in tight
There's no way I can escape
There'll be no killings tonight

Suddenly the changes start
In agony I scream
This is way too much to bear
I wish this were a dream

The pain finally stops
I slowly rise to my feet
Power surges through my body
I'm a beast that knows no defeat

I race around the room
Frantically searching for a way out
Frustration grows inside me
Until I want to shout

A howl comes from my throat
I hurl myself at the door
I will not be trapped
I never have been before

The door splinters on impact
Joyously I howl
I jump through an open window
To begin my midnight prowl

I race through the woods
The full moon leading the way
The thirst for blood surges
I must find my prey

A smell drifts through the air
Unmistakably fresh
I run in that direction
Towards the scent of human flesh

Mad with desire
I fly through the night
I come to a camp
Killing everyone in sight

In the morning I awaken
In my human form once again
I realize I'm in the woods
And my head begins to swim

I take in my surroundings
Gasping at the sight
The ground is covered with blood
I shudder as I remember the night

Sorrow fills my body
Tears fall down my face
Knowing that I must leave
I vanish without a trace

Truth is...
by J. Lau

I used to think
That I can control,
The feelings I had for you
And the thoughts of being with you.

I kept my distance,
I held my stance.
I treasure the friendships,
And I wished you both happiness.

I knew that it will not
Be an easy path,
But it turns out to be much rougher
Then I could ever imagine.
Cause deep down,
It hurts like crazy.

Truth is...
I cannot hold my feelings back
And ignore its existence.
I cannot pretend l am not jealous,
That I'm not the one by your side.

Truth is...
I cannot ignore the pain anymore,
When comforting you when you fall.
I cannot stand seeing you being hurt over and over again,
And there's nothing more I can do.

Truth is...
I'm not being truthful and fair to myself,
Cause it hurts so much inside each time you cry.
I cannot leave this wound open,
And not distance myself to let it heal.

Truth is...
I had feelings for you ever since the day we met,
And it only grew deeper as time past.
I know that I should not feel this way,
But I can't help myself thinking of you each day.

Truth is...
I was sure that you were the one,
ever since we met again that day,
Around the end of June.

I don't know what to do anymore,
My logic is overwhemled by my emotions.
I still wish that everything will work out,
Between you and him.
But if one day in the years to come,
That fate finally grant me the chance.
I wish that we will be together,
Forever less a day...

For that is the day,
I wanted you to know...
How I truly felt ... about YOU.

Beauty
by "-"ciñdy"-"

All girls have beauty
That they try not to loose
But when they give it to a
Boy they use and abuse

They always do something to
Make her beauty die
Girl shed one tear
Her beauty blows by

She give you her beauty
Among other things let loose
Her dignity and
Everything was used

So when you get her beauty
Care it well
Cause once beauty dies
Her heart will as well

"Apart Of Me"

For the longest time
My lips were sealed
But my deepest secret
Now revealed

I always wondered
Deep inside
How life would be
By a fathers side

I wish I knew
At least your name
I wish I knew
Just who to blame

I blame myself
I feel as though
It`s all my fault
You didn`t watch me grow

Was I not good enough
To make you stay
Am I the reason
You walked away

You deprived me
Of a fathers love
You deprived me
Of a loving fathers hug

I went through life
Acting as if I didn`t care
That you, my father
Were never there

It bothered me inside
In my heart I knew I was sad
That to me you`re a stranger
The father I never had

Deep in my heart
To fate I plea
To see the man
That is one half apart of me.

isn't it wonderful..?

isn't it wonderful..?
our last winter..
when a story was written
by the sky of heaven...

the rythm of the wind..
bring us to a dream
where our soul and faith
lies within the overflowing stream...

the stars...
like the tears of thousands angels..
flowing and swaying..
unsteady but gentle..
the moon..
like the melodies of our hearts..
so sweet and tender..

isn't it wonderful..?
to walk on each other hands..
in the impeccable place.
where we found our wishing star

isn't it wonderful..?
to be always together..
loving each other..
wherever we are..

Everytime...

Everytime i go through that corridor
i still remember our steps, that have left after the rain
everytime i stand besides the road,everytime i sit on that chair
i remember what we have done

even though only words are shared
laugh and tears that have been shed
many times and too many memories we have curved on our time

everytime i open that book
i remember everything
you,him,them,have filled my days in this place
accompony,protect,play,teach,share love and stufffs,
cry,laugh,and life
everything landed on my mind

don't be afraid that you will be forgoten
don't be scared that my memory of you will be broken
i promise that it won't happen

even though our footsteps have been cleared
even though the road is no more
even though our chair have been moved
even though that book have been roten

my feeling towards you won't change
although the time has lapsed
through the wind,through the rain
i will always be,the way we were... the way we used to be

thanx friend,you have brought me fly to your world
to see any gorgeous moment
to know this world,meaning of life..
to feel the love,and spend abit happines with you
i love you.. till we meet later...
in heaven...

if only...

If only the sea stop roaring
and the grass loss its colour
will this world be the same..?
enormous skies and mountains,stay unframed

if only the snow can say
and the wind can sing
will they lend me a secret...
another aspect of this life..

if only the time can stop
for a day.....
for a second....
let me seek for the feeling,
the untouched dream
that drown with the night,
simply hidden and broken

if only there is no hate and sadness
things blessed by love and joyfullness
without expressive comment
without pretending moment
i do want to fly, through the dark ,through the clouds
to draw... the beauty of soul...

This is not goodbye
by Tabby

Crying by his bedside my tears flow endlessly
I held his hand so tightly never wanting to let go
Trying to not think about what is about to be
I look up at him trying to not let my sadness show

His eyes are closed his breathing is slow and heavy
I run my hands through his thick, dark, brown hair
His handsome face is so pale with the color gray
That I begin to cry even harder thinking it isn't fair

Sickness is taking my true love away from me
Draining away his energy happiness and light
But not stealing our love away from each other
That is the one thing that he was able to fight

His eyes slowly open and he turns toward me
He smiles a weak smile and touches my cheek
I feel myself breakdown and burst into sobs
trying to say don't die but I could no longer speak

he grabs my hand and pulls me to him
reaching for my face he brings me into a kiss
then he hugs me with such a weak embrace
I hug him so tight never wanting to end this

Suddenly he lets go I pull myself slowly up
He looks at me with such sadness in his eyes
"I love you sweetheart"he says to me
"I love you but there will be no goodbyes"

"I love you to" I sob into his shoulder
I lay on his chest hearing his heart as I cry
I feel his breathing slowly fade away
As i sob to myself I say "its ok this is not goodbye".....

Broken

There's a hole in her heart
where his picture used to be.
Her face used to have a lovely glow,
and she was once so very sweet.

Now she's embittered by her hatred.
She's numb to all the pain.
Only shadows cross her path.
Her tears pour forth like rain.

Her eyes no longer shine.
Darkness consumes her soul.
She is now like shattered glass,
broken pieces that can't be made whole.

He took with him all that was good in her.
Sadly, loving him had had its price.
In her mirror she sees the girl she used to be,
wishing she'd known who she was letting into her life.

His warm embrace
by Marjan

Warm embrace
Sweet face
Shining so bright
A beautiful sight
15 years ago
He told me
I had to go
To somewhere else
I didn't know
I was in tears
Couldn't think of
Being away
For many many years
He cleaned my tears
Put his hand
On my heart
And told me:
I will always
Be here
So near.
And smiled.
A smile I'll
Never forget.
Then I came here
Forgot his face
Throughout the years
But I know he's here
With me
Through thick & thin
I have no fear.
Trying to be my best
Knowing here I'm just a guest
Missing his
Warm embrace
Sweet face
Shining so bright
A beautiful sight

By Marjan Nouhnejad

Show me the world hidden in your mind,
Cry me the tear that will take us inside.
Bring forth emotion, that makes the world crumble,
Pull down some bricks, and watch the walls tumble.

So in your smile, let me see eternal light,
Where sun will never fall, and autumn leaves take flight.
Waves of yellow, gold and green,
Let your smile be more than it seems.

Show me emotion, bring about the rain,
Cry me the tear that will share all your pain.
Bring forth the thunder, release all its sound,
Pull down the lightening, with all strengths bound.

When I look into your eyes,
I pray to see truth and no more lies.
The secret strands of black and white,
No longer hidden from my sight.

Show me your strength, by falling apart,
Cry me the tears of your aching heart.
Bring forth a story of your feelings erosion,
Pull down the glory, of escaping emotion.

Treasure

Tears stream down my cheek
I watch you fly away
To a kingdom unknown
A paradise of better days

A place of love is your stay
Emotions haunt nevermore
Sin is not a fear here
Surroundings so pure

Lies are no longer an issue
The truth is what you find
No more rage and hatred
Peace too complicated for the human mind

So comforting for me now
The memories we share
Close to my heart they stay
Forget them I wouldn't dare

To the end of my days
I'll mourn you forever
You were my only love
My only true treasure

If only, if only youd look into my eyes,
and see that love for you hidden deep down inside.

i want to laugh with you,
to cry with you,
and hold you for all time.

but shes the one who makes you smile, shes the one you see.
im just a friend, theres no way youd love me.

I dont know how to tell you, or explain about that pain.
You see, it hurts when you walk in the room with her and not with me.

okay i admit it its jealousy im feeling,
but im really having trouble dealing with this love.

once again my dreams are crushed.
once again my heart is squashed.

but still i adore you,
still i dont give up.
Am I crazy or one day will I finally be in luck?
And youll finally feel the same as i have all through this STUPID GAME!

Steal A Soul

You can steal a soul
Just for your second chance
But you will never be real
You're just another image

I choose to be tortured
It makes me stronger
In this life that craves hunger
Until the end of the judgment fight

Bless me with your gift of light
Or embrace me with the darkness
Feel the light sorrow swallowed
Or let the black kiss you

Stepping forth
I need a cure for a soul's demise
Reap the tears of the victim's mourns
I yearn more to hear the suffer
Demons call my name

Killed before we killed them all
I gave up on the righteous law
I serve the justice that dwells in me
Lifeless corpses are all I see

All I can see

Bless me with the
Leaf of a tree
On it I see
Freedom and it's reign

We are falling
The light is calling
Tears inside me
Show on the outside

Midnight's calling
Mist resolving
Crown me
With the pure green leaf

Praise to my father
Blessed by the water
Black night dark sky
I hear the world's cry

Bless me with the
Leaf of a tree
On it I see
Freedom and it's reign

A life of vengeance, a certain test
After the grave, I still don't rest
Engage the pressure
Let it crumble

Onward to the field
Where justification is revealed
Tools of steel seek rage and conquer
Give life to the victims stalker

Watch the footsteps but never follow
Let another day, live tomorrow
Steal a soul for a second chance
But you're still just an image.
